Tennessee eliminates Ole Miss from SEC Tournament, all eyes now on Chris Beard and Rebel head coach vacancy

The 2022-2023 Ole Miss men’s basketball season is very much finally over after a second round defeat at the hands of Tennessee, 70-55.

A final record of 12-21 is far from what anyone thought this team was capable of doing, and the firing of Kermit Davis seemed to provide a small shot in the arm to the team who won its first round SEC game last night and played well for the first half against UT.

The Rebels were ultimately overmatched, probably fatigued, and while the players did what it could, there’s just not enough pieces to run with a team like the Volunteers right now.
